List of fastest fifty in WPL ft. Chinelle Henry
by Payal Tomar · Inside Sport IndiaChinelle Henry clinched the record for the fastest fifty in the WPL during the match between Delhi Capitals and UP Warriorz.
UP Warriorz’s Chinelle Henry delivered a breathtaking knock, smashing a 50 off just 18 balls against Delhi Capitals during a Women’s Premier League (WPL) match at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Saturday.
Her blistering half-century equaled the record for the fastest in the league’s history, matching Sophia Dunkley’s 18-ball fifty for Gujarat Giants against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the tournament’s inaugural season.
The West Indies all-rounder’s explosive innings propelled UP Warriorz to a strong total of 171, despite struggling for most of the match.
Jemimah Rodrigues took a stunning catch to dismiss Henry, but it came off the final ball of the innings—after she had already inflicted significant damage.
